Objective:To design a device for exercise to frozen shoulder,and explore its application effect.Methods:The main body of the device for exercise to frozen shoulder adopted stainless steel,which included horizontal frame and adjustable vertical column.It is suitable to the functional rehabilitation of the shoulder in patients with frozen shoulder or postoperative joint adhesions on shoulder.Fifty patients with frozen shoulder who admitted to Zunyi Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between July 2019 and December 2022 were selected.They were randomly divided into observation group(n=25)and control group(n=25)by using a random number table.Both groups received injection therapy via anterior glenohumeral joint cavity.The observation group underwent treatment using the device for exercise to frozen shoulder,while the control group received conventionally functional exercises for shoulder.The Visual Analog Scale(VAS)scores,Shoulder Pain and Disability Index(SPADI)scores,and the range of motion(ROM)of shoulder were compared between the two groups at different periods before and after treatment.Results:VAS and SPADI scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group at the 2nd week,the 2nd month,and the 6th month post-treatment(t=3.368,3.597,4.363,t=2.301,3.553,3.513,P<0.05).Flexion and abduction ROM of shoulder in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group at the 2nd week,the 2nd month,and the 6th month post-treatment(t=3.116,2.909,3.687,t=2.299,2.171,2.413,P<0.05).External rotation ROM of shoulder in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group at the 2nd month and the 6th month post-treatment(t=2.501,3.576,P<0.05).Furthermore,there were significant differences in the VAS and SPADI scores of observation group among before treatment and after 2 weeks,2 months,and 6 months of treatment(F=8.021,6.108,P<0.05).Similarly,there were significant differences in flexion,abduction and external rotation ROM of shoulder in the observation group among before treatment and after 2 weeks,2 months,and 6 months of treatment(F=8.412,10.261,4.085,P<0.05).Conclusion:The self-designed device for exercise is safe and effective in short-term adjunctive treatment to frozen shoulder,which is one kind of alternative tool that is contribute to rehabilitation of frozen shoulder.

The inverse problem of diffuse optical tomography (DOT) is ill-posed. Traditional method cannot achieve high imaging accuracy and the calculation process is time-consuming, which restricts the clinical application of DOT. Therefore, a method based on stacked auto-encoder (SAE) was proposed and used for the DOT inverse problem. Firstly, a traditional SAE method is used to solved the inverse problem. Then, the output structure of SAE neural network is improved to a single output SAE, which reduce the burden on the neural network. Finally, the improved SAE method is used to compare with traditional SAE method and traditional levenberg-marquardt (LM) iterative method. The result shows that the average time to solve the inverse problem of the method proposed in this paper is only 1.67% of the LM method. The mean square error (MSE) value is 46.21% lower than the traditional iterative method, 61.53% lower than the traditional SAE method, and the image correlation coefficient(ICC) value is 4.03% higher than the traditional iterative method, 18.7% higher than the traditional SAE method and has good noise immunity under 3% noise conditions. The research results in this article prove that the improved SAE method has higher image quality and noise resistance than the traditional SAE method, and at the same time has a faster calculation speed than the traditional iterative method, which is conducive to the application of neural networks in DOT inverse problem calculation.
